Dear all,

I added info from three other cohorts, Spain, Italy, and Portugal.

I guess the rows with the dots can be deleted.

Best Tanja

dear all,

 

same as Pedro I added some comments and suggestions here and there.

As I only have a limited role, feel free to ignore 😊

Also don’t hesitate to contact me for further information.

 

 

As every email has a carbon footprint, I am minimizing my emails. So, if you don't hear back from me, it's because of planetary health.

Dear Franco, dear colleagues 

 

First and foremost, thank you for including us in this project. I very much look forward to working with everyone involved.

 

I have reviewed the document and added a few comments and suggestions. I kept these to a minimum to avoid altering what has already been agreed upon.
Please let me know if any further input is needed from our side, or if it would be helpful to clarify our involvement in any of the work packages.

 

The most important suggestions are the following: 

- as medical students are not formally recognised as healthcare professionals, I would suggest introducing the term “healthcare trainees” to facilitate clearer and more accurate reference to those involved in the development and implementation of toolkits for behavioural interventions in youth populations

- the inclusion of EMSA in WP4 in TP4.2 and TP4.3. As well as WP5 in TP5.2, TP5.3.1, TP5.3.3- to contribute to youth involvement and to the co-creative processes 

- I have also included EMSA as a participant in WP8, in Task 8.1, particularly in relation to point iv: “collective and participatory sense-making exercises with a multidisciplinary panel”, however please let me know if you consider this appropriate.

 

Additionally please find attached EMSA`s logo in order to be added to section 3.2

 

Best regards,

Pedro Barata

Dear All,

 

As promised, I am circulating the current version of the A-Z-HEALTH proposal (Part B) for your review and final contributions. In order of priority, I would like to ask you to do the following:

  1. For All. Open the document and search for your name (first name) in the comments placed alongside the text of the proposal. We have asked specific questions and requested contributions in those comments and I would be grateful if you could answer any questions in the comments and provide the contributions requested by adding them directly into the text in track changes mode.
  2. For WP leaders. Please, ensure that your WP table in Section 3 reflects all the comments that may have been made by partners involved in tasks. Please, note that deliverables, milestones and risks are listed in separate tables at the end, as required by the latest EC template.
  3. For All. Review the rest of the document and make any comments/suggestions/edits that you think may improve the proposal. Please, feel free to be critical if you see anything you do not like. It’s better to receive criticism by partners than by reviewers when the proposal is evaluated.
  4. For All. At the moment, the proposal is well over the page limit. So, please, be parsimonious when suggesting the inclusion of additional text. Any suggestions you may have about things that you think could be cut would also be most welcome.

 

As you know, the proposal is due on Thursday, so I have to ask you to make the above changes by tomorrow (Tuesday) evening, and in any case no later than Wednesday morning at 10am CET at the very latest.

 

I look forward to receiving your final inputs before finalising and submitting the proposal.

 

Thank you for your help.

 

Franco

Subject: Update on progress with EU bid

 

Dear All,

 

I would like to thank all those who have been working hard on various aspects of the proposal since our last Consortium meeting. We have made substantial progress, and we are now seeing light at the end of the tunnel. First of all, I would like to inform you that we have changed the title and acronym of the project, which are now as follows:

 

A-Z-HEALTH: Health in the digital generations, from Alpha to Zoomer

 

So, don’t be surprised if you see the slightly changed acronym. It’s the same project!

 

We have virtually completed our line up of partners, with more countries implementing interventions than we had originally envisaged (5 for the 12-18 intervention; 4 for the 19-25 intervention). On the academic research side, the Amsterdam University Medical Centre has joined the proposal to lead WP3.

 

The proposal is always accessible in Box (version that includes 3103 in the file name). It is not yet complete or polished, but we are getting there. We have been having some issues with the Box system, particularly with simultaneous editing, therefore we have decided that we will circulate a version of the proposal on Monday morning as an email attachment to all of you, so that you can work offline. We will ask you to check for places where your name is mentioned in the comments, and to provide the information requested, in addition to making any edits that you think would be useful.

 

In the meantime, I am attaching a document that includes preliminary budget allocations. The budgeting process is complex, as you know, and it is still under way, but we would like you to flag any issues that you may spot in the attached, for the time being. Please, note that the attached document does not contain subcontracting costs.

 

Please, do not hesitate to let me know if you have any questions before I circulate the proposal on Monday.

 

All the best,

 

Franco
